YupWe used to catch them out on swiftsure Bank many years ago.
I always found the flesh somewhat mushy.

That's awesome. We will be staying in Lewisporte for part of our time and heading out to Exploits Island for several days. Not that far from Twillingate by boat. You are either a Newfie or married to one, lol.Just got back , was in Twillingate last 3 weeks

I didn’t know these tasted good. We catch those all the time around telegraph cove in 300 feet of water while targeting halibut, usually the same size as the one he’s holding in the pic. I always toss them back. Maybe we only catch big ones because I’m running 9” hoochies with salmon belly/large herring all wrapped up with big butt hooks.That's a monster!!

They really absorb spices and rubs when you prep them, one of the characteristics of that fish. Cook til translucent. I buy the ones at Costco in winter that are Alaskan caught.

That applies to most fish.It always amazes me how people will throw salmon uncleaned and unbled into a cooler and leave them floating in a mixture of blood and ice water till the trip is finished-each to his own I guess.P Cod are best when gutted and iced right away when brought on board, meat stays a lot firmer.
no. ribs run like a cross thru the body. kinda loinwd like tunaI’ve never caught one….im assuming they would fillet like salmon or ling?

Nice sharp knife. I noticed he cut the tongues out too. Nothing wasted.
Not sure if you saw it but he also took the roe. (Referred to as cod pea or britches back home.). I was trying to find the video where the guy cleaned and kept the head and also the napes but couldn’t. That guy definitely didn’t waste anything.Nice sharp knife.

Newfie fella I worked with always said cod tongues are the best. Used to fry them up with salt and pepper.Nice sharp knife. I noticed he cut the tongues out too. Nothing wasted.
